    "Ironically that was Victoria Pendleton recreating an iconic image of... Lance Armstrong"

    AH, I didn't know that.

    Is that the biggest version of Lance you can find?

    He doesn't look comfortable - in both senses.

  2. There were bigger, but I don't have a bottle of mind bleach to hand.

    No, I remember seeing the Lance pic when it was first published and wondered whhat the point was, then Victoria Pendleton recreated it and I still couldn't see the point.

    Actually I don't think it was Victoria Pendleton I was thinking of.

    You may have been thinking of Rebecca Romero, who did a similar shot for a Powerade ad campaign. I'll refrain from posting an image here ;).

    However, so that the admen aren't accused of exploitation (although that's about all I'll defend them on) I would note that this was an equal opportunity gratuitous nudity / opportunity for olympic athletes to show off their sculpted bodies (delete as appropriate) as there were similar naked photos of a triple jumper and swimmer of the male persuasion.

    They then went and did it again with some rugby players - all male again. Google is your friend if that kind of thing floats your boat.

    "end up referring to the day as the “Skyride”. I don’t know about you, but every time I call it that, I get a little bit of sick in my mouth."

    Contrast with today where 2 million cagers have locked down London. Carnage was how a mate of mine described it.

    Roads are apparently full of moron drivers who thought they'd be the only one to think of taking the cars today...
